Bulls vs Knicks Prediction, Projected Score & Pick

Chicago Bulls at New York Knicks · Wed, Nov 4, 2026

HoopVantage's Nov 4, 2026 prediction: New York Knicks over the Bulls by 10.9 points, a 82% win probability, with a projected final of Bulls 109, Knicks 120 (total 228.5).

The model projects New York Knicks to win by 10.9 points (82% win probability), projected score NYK 120, CHI 109, total 228.5 (80% range 205–252). The largest driver is player on-court impact (4.5 points toward NYK).

Matchup

Chicago Bulls rank 26 of 30 in the HoopVantage power rating (−4.9 points against an average opponent, about 28 projected wins in 2026-27); New York Knicks rank 3 (+4.5, about 51 wins). On a neutral floor that gap is worth 9.4 points to New York Knicks; home court, rest, travel and the projected rotations move it to the 10.9-point margin above. A 82% win probability means New York Knicks should win about 8 of 10 games like this one, so the other side winning is a normal outcome, not an upset of the model.
